Arctic Saxophone is the second album where Ola Asdahl Rokkones (b.1983) premieres three new classical saxophone concertos commissioned by him. The album title Arctic Saxophone is not only a reference to his hometown Tromso, but also to the three composers on this recording that all have some link to the Arctic. The two Norwegian composers Alexander Aar?en and Terje Bjorklund both originate from Northern Norway, and the Russian composer Alexander Manotskov caught his inspiration from the Russian city of Arkhangelsk.

A daring polar expedition in sound to discover the beauty and terror of a disappearing wilderness.
The polar regions supply some of the planet’s most stunning landscapes, as well as the most startling images of climate crisis. Opening Ultima 2019 at Oslo’s Konserthuset, Lasse Thoresen’s monumental 80 minute multimedia orchestral work Lyden av Arktis (The Sound of the Arctic), written specifically for the Arktisk Filharmoni (Arctic Philharharmonic), is inspired by his travels around the white-out landscapes of Svalbard and Finnmark, and incorporates the visual archives of Tromsø Museum and Norway’s Polar Institute.
